The existing Memorandum of Association (MOA) of the Company was adopted by the Company at the time of its incorporation on 29[th] June,1978 and is based on the erstwhile Companies Act, 1956 and is therefore not in conformity with the Companies Act,2013.The Companies Act,2013, has prescribed a new format of MOA for public companies limited by shares under Table A of the Schedule I of the Companies Act, 2013. According to the Companies Act, 2013, the companies are required to have only “the objects to be pursued by the company and matters which are necessary for furtherance of the objects specified”. Further in terms of provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, MOA shall not consist of other object clause.
